Health Week.
"Health Week" was held during the second week
of May.
Clergymen were requested to devote part of their
sermons on Sunday, 6th May to health matters. Lectures
were given in the Concert Hall on general health, diet,
cancer, venereal diseases and other subjects during the
week.
Cinema films were shown in the Concert Hall on
four sessions of an hour each daily. The subjects of the
films were very varied, including three dental films—
"Tommy Tucker's Tooth," "Don't Wait till it Hurts,"
and "The Leaflet"; two on cleanliness—"Giro the
Germ," "Hearts and Hands," and one entitled "Dr.
Wise on Influenza." Several films were shown illustrating
the importance of clean milk. The lecture on
venereal diseases on the Wednesday evening was also
illustrated by an interesting film.
